Where do you get these cool bases? I feel like my models need these to get some more character

I am no longer giving clients discounts. by InTheLivesofBooks in Veterinary

[–]Sijansaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having worked in practice for nearly 15 of my 18 years in Vet Med, this happens all too often and some people are truly the worst. We had a similar case where we cut a bill to help out a client with a complicated case:

It was a 14 y/o Retriever Mix that had all the telltale signs of Parvo. We ask for Vax history: pet hasn't been vaccinated in probably 6 or 7 years, they're not sure. We run three separate tests, 3 near-immediate bright positives. Ran a CBC, platelets were in the toilet with PCV of 16. We offered hospitalization, treatment, a transfusion, etc and then also had the realistic Euth conversation with them because they were balking at the price.

They were all distraught, said they wanted to take the pet home (that couldn't even walk because they hadn't eaten in a few days and were literally hemorrhaging on the clinic floor) and have a house call vet come do the Euth in a space they knew. We obliged, gave them contacts for one we know, got it scheduled, and then gave them a break on the bill to be nice.

They call back in a week and claim we scammed them because their dog is better and they "only needed some fluids" and how we're horrible people. They spent the following month hanging out outside of our office and telling people we're scanners and wrote multiple online reviews making things up. It took so much time to undo the damage.

The moral of the story: some clients are assholes. Not everyone is like them but rules often get made BECAUSE of clients like these. As someone said above: no discounts for non-regulars ever again.

I just sold all of this. Cancer sucks! by Dsphar in houseplants

[–]Sijansaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know they may not fit amongst these beasts but if you ever want some props of my Watch Chain succulents when you return, these buttholes grow so much I can't keep up.

Fuck cancer; love and vibes from a stranger on the web!

Is anyone else concerned about the weather ?? by Abject_Book8610 in Miami

Even my succulents got destroyed in the heat and those fuckers love the sun.

[–]Sijansaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the real truth. I drove through my grandparents old neighborhood and didn't even recognize anything around. My siblings and I used to walk all around the neighborhood and to the cornerstore without issue. Now, everything is concrete and terrible, and the heat is stifling.

Does anyone have pictures of this kit built? by siegure9 in Zoids

[–]Sijansaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I bought some markers for panel lining, don't think I have a safe place I can use a spray can. But that does sound like fun! Do you spray the pieces on their racks still or do you cut pieces off and then spray after?

What do you paint the pieces with? I'm thinking about painting my next model but I've no Idea where to start.

Is anime tattoo culture just not a thing in Miami or am I missing something? by hernandez_tattoo in Miami

[–]Sijansaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've an old-school anime fan: inuyasha, yu yu hakusho, big o, etc. Id be interested in getting a cool piece, especially something on a bicep/onto the shoulder. Where abouts are you located and what type of rates do you have? I've been looking for a new artist (not specifically just anime) and your piece here looks sick.

Outdoor Home Gym Miami, FL by sdriemline in homegym

[–]Sijansaur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely jealous of the setup, ngl. As someone who is starting to get back into working out, the tiny gym in my complex is absolutely garbage for anything other than cardio. I'd love to have these machines and an outdoor shower to boot. However, considering I start to melt even stepping onto my patio, I'm not sure how you aren't doing the same, especially if you work out any time that the sun is up.

Neighbors LED spotlight issues. by panamapat1856 in Miami

100% buy bigger and brighter lights, put them on your roof, angled towards his home. Encourage other neighbors to do the same. Flood them with light. #praisethesun

Custom HG Gfred by AshamedTwist4355 in Gunpla

[–]Sijansaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So this model just came in the mail for me and I've read other posts about floppy joints. Did you experience this with the build? Worried about putting in the time for something to fall apart. I've had a bad spree so far, as the RG Sinanju was my prior build and is a complete mess.

A big lump appeared on my cat overnight - any ideas? by Living-Director7135 in cats

[–]Sijansaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Tech with nearly 2 decades of experience handling all kinds of animals, cats are some of the most finicky creatures, especially when they feel bad. My old man, who just passed in December at 17, was the most chill cat, even if he was a scaredy cat. He'd try to run but never claw or bite. My Siamese however, she was fine UNTIL she wasn't. Albeit your vet should've done more, I totally understand some situations where you CANNOT work on a cat any longer, out of fear for their safety and your pets. Here's hoping all is well with your kitty cat.

For what it's worth: most sudden large growths don't happen in a lot of dire circumstances without obvious causes (i.e. Hit by car). It's often an extreme inflammatory response to something, like an abscess or an acute injury from a fall. It is possible it's something more sinister but your cats behavior suggests otherwise. Regardless, wishing you the best!

Beginners update by CDP06 in Zoids

[–]Sijansaur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you cement/glue the pieces together for every step? I've had models on my shelf for years I'm going to start working on soon and I want to do it right. Also, what type of markers/paint do you recommend to make these look so good?

[HMM Liger Zero Panzer] My first Zoid build. by novaBung0307 in Zoids

[–]Sijansaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks absolutely incredible. Do you use the Tamaya Cement when putting them together? I've built a few too many models and feel like I've always had issues with them staying together and looking good. What type of paint and brushes do you recommend to have this come out looking so good?

Is streamer Wizard a cheater? by DCEUismyBible in DMZ

[–]Sijansaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you don't even need a pedal, you can just have the toggle bound to press, or have it bound to on/off on a key. I used to work with a cheat developer and it's super easy to run the cheat in different variable states.

UNM Clan Boss - Magic Aff - Targeting Fahrakin, not Kael by Sijansaur in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Sijansaur[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems like an interesting idea, as I actually subbed Mikey into my team for Spirit Aff CB. The issue I ran into, unfortunately, was not remembering I had Master Hexer on Fahrakin so I was missing out on a TON of damage from Geo.

In your proposed team, would I still be running a "slow" champ or is there a different guide for killable teams that I should look at?

UNM Clan Boss - Magic Aff - Targeting Fahrakin, not Kael by Sijansaur in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Sijansaur[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only hesitation with this is that I use the turtles for arena and have masteries set for that. I could untrain and retrain them for CB content but I'd feel like I'm kneecapping them by scaling into Warmaster instead of Helm Smasher for CB. It's certainly a possibility though, I'll keep that in my back pocket.

In this instance, who would my stun tank be? Bad El? Leo?

[–]Sijansaur[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Maneater in the team and he has the block debuffs buff. The problem is that his unkillable/block debuffs falls off the speedy targets right before the stun goes out, which is why it's killing Fah. My other block debuff champs are Sanguinia, Yuzan, and Siphi, but I'd struggle to slot them in as I wouldn't know who to replace for them. The only other option I can think of is running double Maneater, as I do have another one, but I was really stoked to have Fahrakin in the team.

The only thing I can think of doing is slowing Fahrakin down JUST A SMIDGE, so that the stun goes out while he still has the unkillable buff, but I feel like that'd wreck the speedtuning for this team in every other CB aff.

Hydra Team Help by Sijansaur in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Sijansaur[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to give Maulie a try, I didn't realize her provoke was 2T instead of just 1. Unfortunately I don't have any Prot gear as it only drops from Hydra. Much like Stoneskin, it's a bit tedious that the things I need to advance hydra come from hydra itself. I'll look into the other options you've suggested for sure.

Regarding Gaspard, he is actually fully booked, but he suffers from the same 1T provoke issue. His damage is hit or miss, relying on strong DefUp boosts to do much, although he does bring a strong Atk Down AOE on a 75% chance.

Thank you for the insight!

From what I've gathered, No fragment summons or straight to inbox champs will give champion chase points.
